Scholarship Fund for Tangerang Still Insufficient

Every year, the scholarship budget for poor students in Tangerang Regency always rises. However, the Education Board of Tangerang Regency considers that the budget of Rp 5 million for poor student scholarship in primary schools is still insufficient this year. The Deputy Chief of Education Board of Tangerang Regency, Eni Suhaeni, says that the education budget is still far below standard. Although it is already 36 percent of the Regional Budget, it includes physical and non-physical aspects. Therefore, the situation is still worrisome in Tangerang Regency.
